Title: This is why I dont take a lunch break!!
Post by: Wazukie on October 16, 2010, 08:29:01 PM: My son took his first deer at 2pm today. He made the picture perfect shot. It was 150 yrds. It was moving away and across from us. We had about 30 seconds to set up. I hit the squeaker and he pulled the trigger. Deer dropped with 20 yards. I am a proud dad this day :IBCOOL: and every day!!

Congrats!
Rifle is a Ruger #1 25-06. It does the job for sure. and for the cape, sorry it was not saved. We gutted it split it then carried it out on our shoulders 4 miles. Did not want the extra weight. And yes, it is a memory of a lifetime. Now I got to get him on a bear and a elk :)

Title: Re: This is why I dont take a lunch break!!
Post by: Wazukie on October 17, 2010, 05:04:14 PM: Thanks for all the comments, I didn't mention that this is a 4 point. If you look at his left hand, he's holding the back point. I wish I would of thought a little more about composition before I took the photo's but I think I was more excited than he was.

Now I will be off tomorrow to get mine. There has been a lot of 4 and 5 points taken on the Mountain this year, but at least most of them have been taken by local's :)
